Thanks for watching! Like, Comment, Subscribe! Catch my livestreams here or at twitch.tv/anabriella (I now stream to both platforms simultaneously). The Perfected Heavy boots - learned from completing the Master Armorer journey give a little more armor value and buff both strength and agility. These would be my recommendation for boots for either strength or agility heavy armor. Thanks for the commenters mentioning this one
After reading spreadsheets, and watching out dated guides online,it's refreshing to see this video for AoW. Nice one and good recommendations on everything needed!
I need to try that cause my current build is all vitility, strength and agility with using havoc and malak as my main weapons and I win about 80% pvp with it and bosses are nothing with this build.
Silver circlet and anklets from the derketo dlc give 8% strength, and most of the bejewelled gives 8% agility, if you don’t mind taking the concept of light armour to extremes.
Exotic feast has a warming effect, instead for a 15% str damage bonus you can use cooked catfish, or salted pork. You can also use the grog for agility damage bonus.
l just wanted to add that salted pork also gives 15% str and just require salt and pork (and well, ofc, a stove) The recipe for it is at the summoning place (i.e darfari main camp, directly south of the sinkhole) Nice video btw, cheers!
Really needed this concise guide. Just finished the Skelos dungeon, which killed me so many times despite being level 60 with Silent Legion Medium armor, and killed my thrall as well, hate this dungeon. Yes, I had to cheat to recover my death stash.
If you have Siptah (and i.e. a cluster server, where you can transfer between EL & it - or admins have implemented them via Pippi or something) - that opens up quite a few possibilities.
A believe a special mention should be given to completing the Master Armorer Journey step which gives the recipe of perfect versions of the light, medium, and heavy base armors. These armors all give +5% strength and agility damage per piece which makes them ideal for not having to make different sets for thralls which might gain more of one star over the other as the level due to random number generator.
@@Anabriella Just so it doesn't get swept aside, for heavy armor I know for certain that the perfected Heavy boots learned from the master armor journey step are the best armor value +3% (+5% w/t4 armorer) to strength and agility in the game. The armor value of the rest of the set isn't quite the best using mismatched pieces, but it is a heck of a lot easier to get the mats to make this armor.
Redeemed legion helmet void forge dragon chest god breaker grips champion bottoms.. hyboreian slaver boots.. three swipes from a thrall 3 skull boss dead! Even arena champion doesn't last more then a couple seconds..
Perfected Heavy Armor done changed the game. If you use the VAM mod packages, you can grind out epic quality PHA that has nearly 1k on the chest alone, ooft.
6:22 if you plan on transmogging those Champion Leggings for your personal look, keep in mind the base game prevents you from dyeing them even after being transmogged. Kinda annoying.
I can only hazard a guess that it's because people were dyeing Champions armor to appear as if they were wearing "merely" Silent Legion in a PVP setting for some kind of advantage. Appearing to be an easier target to fool people? Maybe enough people complained to the devs and they took action? This is entirely speculation as I don't play PVP.
What about Siptah? In exiled lands for agility my build is skelos cultist head and hands, silent legion medium pauldrons, and verminhide pants and boots. On Siptah I use Aspect of Jhil and Fist of the Drowned. And i replace the verminhide with skelos cultist master. Strength I tend to go heavier. Redeemed legion helmet, voidforged dragon ribs, godbreaker grips, champion legging or if lazy pictish, and pictush boots i siptah Aspect of the Wolf, Bracers of the Serpent, Black knight tasset, Frost giant boots.
Fantastic video Ana! This will help me a lot, I have most of those armors but the tips at the end were so worth my time, thanks for making these videos! EDIT: Fixed typos
Max strength, max authority with 2 Cimmerian Berserkers (War party) max expertise for unlimited carry weight, best build ever you are basically invincible. Put remainder of the points in grit and vitality. And then I use whatever armor Silent Legion is pretty good, any armor that increases follower damage is good
@@Anabriella I meant that since fresh 60 levels may not complete any dungeons required for those sets yet is there any alternatives to craft with only knowledge points? But I figured it out by now, thank you! Dark Templar set seems good for agility weapons until you get ranger set from the journey. I'm happy with it so far.
@@eudorasynn4064 Stygian soldier armour does the same thing, and is heavy armor craftable immediately at level 60 (for the epic version). I showed that in the video too
By far the best explained video I’ve seen on the base armour sets. Much appreciated! I’ll be going through more on the channel as I’m a big noob 🤣 Awesome video
I love agility because there's a bunch of now agility weapons that were strength - you can just move faster, recover quicker with agility and slay the enemy. I love it. Always was a strength player but I switched
Best agi med is Master Skelos Gives same +8agi but also gives +10 follower damage. Much better than extra stam, especially with mew stam regen since update
for your Agility and Strenght bonus categories, you can also have a look at the Perfected Light/Medium/Heavy Armour. Each piece gives both +5% strength and +5% Ability weapon damage bonus and you can unlock them by completing the Master Armoursmith Journey.
The hair styles are a mod. I don't know if they'll add them to the base game. If enough people request it on the forums, I'm sure they'll at least consider it.
Interesting build. Definitely not my choice. Though I can understand why you did. But honestly once you figure out things like especially gliding joints to reduce the stamina cost. Especially on heavy armor. You'll note you don't have to put that much into your grit. I'm DPS build. So I hit really hard. And no I don't use corrupted stats. In my opinion you lose too much for what you actually gain. It makes you a glass cannon. Sure you hit really hard. But you also become very squishy in return. So just take that into consideration.
The authority is basically meaningless, those 5 points could be used for something else. It makes no actual difference when knocking out a thrall and considering the state the world bosses and other creatures are these days the fighters don't need any buff from the authority. I used to have it maxed out with the extra thrall points perk but now i've left the attribute completely out and the thralls still do just fine, hasn't affected the gameplay in any way. Players still kill the best thralls in the best gear with no problem since the nerfing so it doesn't matter on that front either. The concussive damage you deal is ridiculous even without any authority points, you can defeat T4 fighters easily with the iron truncheon with only the second best blunted fitting on it and if you have the steel one with advanced fitting the fight is over in 2 combos. And with the purple lotus orbs you don't even need to fight anymore. Trying to get the damage buffs out of every piece of gear is not ideal for my style of gameplay, the difference it makes is marginal. Some difference in the numbers, yes, but in actual gameplay not that much. Get the buffs from food and drink. What i have found to be much more useful is a lot of HP and the steel thewed perk from max grit although it was recently nerfed a bit. Players stare too much at the damage numbers, i've noticed. In the choice of weapons as in the attributes, but what i must say is that you are on point with the mace, it's a great choice for a thrall weapon instead of the slow, two handed swords many seem to think are best just because of the damage they deal. When it comes to armor, i've completely lost interest in getting the best since they won't save you in a pvp fight. I've been killed with a single hit even while in 1200+ armor so yeah.. I'll put my trust once again in the steel thewed perk. That, tons of HP and then maybe the best armor if i feel like it. And just to mention, i've been playing this game over 5 years now so i've experienced these situations quite a few times to know what works best for me. It doesn't mean it's the best for everyone, that's not what i'm getting at. Just offering my opinion after well over 5000 hours.
